A waterlily shot in full sunlight in my back yard. The damselfly was laying eggs under the lily pad.

Hi

I like the scene and the behaviour is great - but I am not into the funny cut out look


All the best
Matthew

A pleasing and colorful scene. As presented it might be more appropriate in the digital art forum but a nice shot in any case.

Aw, c'mon guys, lighten up! I don't see in little rectangles and squares at all. Even my binoculars see in the round, like my eyes. We've been so "boxed in" for so long, maybe it's time to see "outside the box" and be creative. Cameras have a round lens, but take rectangular images. Why? To please our minds image that we have been programmed to expect?
Here's a rectangular version for you:

Fine image - and what a wild crop! I like it for the creative look.
